Well if you are a knife maker and have used Walrus Ivory like I have over the years we should all be thankful we have Walrus Ivory for those beautiful handles.My idea
that I got started on last October was a tribute to the Walrus so this is what I came up with after 318 hrs.The display is a beautiful fossil Walrus Tusk that I scrimshawed a Walrus scene on.
The knife is a fossil Walrus Ivory fighter that is solid Walrus Ivory including the blade.The knife is one solid piece of Walrus Ivory that I totally hand carved. I scrimshawed a Walrus face
on top of the handle and carved a Walrus face with tusk on the pommel.Hope you all like it and any and all comments are always appreciated.Knife and Tusk specs are below.
Knife OAL;12 inches
Blade; Solid Walrus ivory hollow ground by hand with a file and a swedge on the spine.
Handle; Solid Walrus ivory hand carved and shaped with a file and sanding block.Scrimshawed Walrus face on top of handle.Carved Walrus face in the pommel
Guard is also solid Walrus ivory.
Tusk;Tusk is fossil Walrus ivory with beautiful color and very solid with NO voids.Tusk is 25 inches long with a Walrus scene that I scrimshawed on it. Tusk weighs 5.4 lbs
Asking $3200.00 and if you do not like the price PM me with any questions.
That includes free shipping in the USA via USPS Priority Mail Insured. Payment by money or check only. Thanks again for taking a look
